00:00:33.940 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.

00:00:36.900 Good to have you with us.

00:00:38.020 Thanks for being here.

00:00:39.860 Just the News, Editor-in-Chief and Founder John Solomon joins us.

00:00:44.440 And now here is John Solomon, and John, great to have you with us.

00:00:48.560 Let's start with there is such a laundry list of breaking news and events.

00:00:56.700 Let's start with the GOP representatives actually starting to move on the idea of invalidating the J-6 committee, delegitimizing it.

00:01:08.400 I don't know if that's the correct word, but in my mind, it was never legitimate to begin with.

00:01:12.600 But Massey and Burleson, you know, we're looking at a real move to invalidate those subpoenas.

00:01:25.460 Your thoughts about it?

00:01:27.320 This is very real.

00:01:28.800 You're right, Lou.

00:01:29.440 In fact, what makes it real, Newt Gingrich actually brought this idea up on my show about two weeks ago,

00:01:34.380 and he wrote a nice column after that.

00:01:36.520 But I think he's given cover for Republicans to try something different.

00:01:40.460 The oversight Republicans, as good intention as they are, haven't always had the teeth it takes to win this struggle with the Democrats.

00:01:48.200 And I think Newt Gingrich put something on the table that made everyone feel comfortable.

00:01:51.700 And remember, there's so much evidence to show that what the J-6 committee did was a deception on the American people.

00:01:58.620 When I broke the story about three weeks ago that the testimony of the Secret Service driver,

00:02:05.460 the guy that was in the limo with Donald Trump on January 6th,

00:02:09.100 he tried to testify all throughout the summer of 2022 and tried to tell Liz Cheney and Benny Thompson and others,

00:02:16.340 hey, that episode that you just put on national television with Cassie Hedgeson, it never happened.

00:02:21.200 Use the word never.

00:02:22.200 Never happened.

00:02:23.140 And they didn't want to call him.

00:02:24.460 They actually let the bad story stay out there for six, seven months and deceive the American people all the way through the 2022 election.

00:02:33.340 I think as more of those facts come into evidence, I mean, I think everyone had the suspicion.

00:02:37.920 Now you can prove there was fraud on the American people, deception on the American people,

00:02:42.960 inappropriate investigative tactics, hiding of evidence, destruction of evidence.

00:02:48.720 I think it's brought the Republicans' courage up to do something big.

00:02:54.380 And Barry Loudomilk has said he's very interested in potentially invalidating the J-6 committee.

00:02:58.800 He wants to finish the job of a couple of outstanding things.

00:03:02.680 We're going to have a big January 6th story next week.

00:03:04.500 You'll see some of the things that Barry Loudomilk's been digging up these last few weeks.

00:03:08.040 But I think the American public have long ago realized that the J-6 committee was a sham.

00:03:13.480 It was a Hollywood-made movie that didn't care about the facts.

00:03:15.920 And now Congress could do something for history.

00:03:20.040 Congress could do something for Steve Bannon.

00:03:22.520 Congress could do something for Peter Navarro.

00:03:26.120 And they can make a statement to the Justice Department that won't prosecute Merrick Garland for doing what they accused Bannon and Navarro of doing.

00:03:34.400 And say, listen, we're going to put a wrench in your political prosecution machine.

00:03:40.360 We're withdrawing the subpoenas and we're repudiating the findings of the report.

00:03:44.520 That would be a really, really significant moment for history and for the immediate aftermath of January 6th.

00:03:51.980 It would be quite something for Speaker Mike Johnson as well.

00:03:56.160 Mike Johnson needs a win, if ever a man did.

00:03:59.960 And I haven't seen him step up with courage and focus and say that this is going to happen.

00:04:08.880 Behind the scenes, I know there's a great deal of talk, but only talk coming out of the Speaker's office.

00:04:16.740 Yeah, listen, I think Barry Loudomilk is going to drive the show.

00:04:19.200 He has proven himself to be a really adept investigator.

00:04:22.320 He is relentless.

00:04:24.300 No matter how many tricks the Democrats tried to hide the evidence, he got it right.

00:04:27.440 He got those transcripts.

00:04:28.340 He found them.

00:04:29.420 He has compelled the Secret Service to provide information that they don't normally provide Congress.

00:04:34.660 He's brought witnesses before the committee that had been reluctant or ignored in the past.

00:04:39.260 I think it's his show boat to drive.

00:04:41.860 And I think he could put the Speaker on the spot.

00:04:43.760 But one thing I do know about the Speaker is that the Speaker just recently approved a significant financial expansion of his investigation,

00:04:52.380 giving him millions more dollars to complete this in time for the election.

00:04:56.280 That at least tells me that Mike Johnson realizes there's been some success in this investigation.

00:05:00.560 Now the question is, will that success be filed by a courageous act that can change the course of history?

00:05:05.760 That remains to be seen.

00:05:08.120 It does.

00:05:08.980 And right now, the lights suggest that that isn't going to happen.

00:05:14.660 He's a disappointment.

00:05:16.640 I know President Trump has been working mightily to save him.

00:05:22.020 But I don't see that.

00:05:23.280 I don't see that right now being even close to effective to benefit Mike Johnson or the conference.

00:05:30.840 Yeah.

00:05:31.120 I'm not convinced he wants a job next year.

00:05:32.920 We'll see.

00:05:33.940 He's an accidental speaker.

00:05:36.120 And at the end of the day, I think the election results in November will really dictate what sort of leader will be in the Senate,

00:05:43.540 what sort of leader will be in the House, and who will be working with President Trump should he be reelected.

00:05:48.680 The people are going to have a big say in this, not the conference of the Republicans right now.

00:05:52.680 I think the American electorate is going to be the jury that tells Congress what sort of leader they want in the House in 2025.

00:06:00.500 I think you're right.

00:06:03.160 And also, I think it's also interesting that President Trump today chose to go after Paul Ryan, which he could have done at any moment.

00:06:13.760 That's right.

00:06:14.260 You know, everybody's favorite ex-speaker, Paul Ryan.

00:06:20.800 What is behind that?

00:06:22.400 So, Paul Ryan had some comments earlier this week saying that Donald Trump was a populist without principle,

00:06:30.540 which is kind of funny because when you look at the Trump agenda, the one he's offering the American people in 2024,

00:06:37.360 the one he delivered on through 2020, there's a very clear value system behind it, right?

00:06:42.820 Security, law and order, shrinking government, returning power to the people, getting the deep state from putting their thumb on elections, securing the world.

00:06:55.460 Raising real wages for American workers, supporting the American family.

00:07:01.660 Yeah. 0.58

00:07:01.900 I mean, the problem with Paul Ryan is he's got a bigger mouth than brain. 0.52

00:07:07.900 That's one of them.

00:07:08.820 Look at his record as speaker, right?

00:07:10.780 This is the guy that built his entire current.

00:07:12.520 I'm going to shrink government.

00:07:13.800 Government grew on his watch.

00:07:15.340 He opposed the Trump tax cuts for a while.

00:07:17.080 He didn't want to go do those.

00:07:18.600 It took Job Creditor's Network and other people the courage to get out there and push him to do it back in 17.

00:07:24.100 He believed in the Russia hoax for a long time.

00:07:26.240 He got hoodwinked by the establishment and the elitists and these intelligence agencies.

00:07:31.860 There's a guy whose principles weren't met by the actual conduct of his work.

00:07:36.380 He didn't shrink government.

00:07:37.500 Government grew the entire time Paul Ryan was in charge.

00:07:41.200 And so if he wants to talk about the gap between productivity and principles, his speakership is perhaps the best example.

00:07:49.720 He was not an effective leader.

00:07:51.560 He was not a guy who delivered on the principles he said he ran on his whole life.

00:07:55.780 So he might want to put the mayor up before throwing rocks at Donald Trump. 0.95

00:08:00.060 Yeah, and the fact of the matter is, he's the biggest charlatan in the world.

00:08:04.860 He wanted to be perceived as a wonk.

00:08:07.060 The man couldn't figure out a budget if he had to.

00:08:10.220 We're going to be right back.

00:08:11.640 We're talking with John Solomon, editor-in-chief of Just the News.

00:08:15.120 Stay with us.

00:08:16.000 We'll be right back.

00:08:16.760 Folks, you know I beg everyone to get ready for the next crisis.

00:08:21.600 And when it comes, our lives will likely change overnight, whether it's natural disaster, war, or another disease.

00:08:29.220 We have to be ready as we can be.

00:08:31.360 We saw what happened in 2020 when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains.

00:08:36.120 We're still dependent on China and other countries for more than 90% of all our pharmaceuticals.

00:08:41.760 With clusters of respiratory illnesses popping up around the world and here, we need to be prepared.

00:08:47.820 And now is the time to make certain you have what your family needs when the next crisis hits.

00:09:53.080 We're back with John Solomon, Editor-in-Chief of Just the News.

00:09:57.280 We're talking about Paul Ryan and as much as I'd love to continue.

00:10:00.700 Let me turn to his successor.

00:10:06.100 And that's Kevin McCarthy.

00:10:07.380 We see him in the shadows.

00:10:08.700 We see him in the background.

00:10:10.900 And there's every kind of rumor that he's looking for a big White House job and that Donald Trump is ready to give it to him.

00:10:19.900 Tell us what you know.

00:10:22.820 Yeah, listen, I think over the years, Kevin McCarthy and Donald Trump worked out a good working relationship.

00:10:28.880 I think Kevin McCarthy, you know, comes from California.

00:10:32.180 So he's not your deep-rooted conservative, right?

00:10:35.580 He's got that California blend of Republicanism that emerged after the Ronald Reagan era, which is often squishy and mushy.

00:10:43.760 But I think he developed an honest friendship with Donald Trump.

00:10:47.280 I think he stuck by Donald Trump.

00:10:48.740 By the way, he was much more supportive of Donald Trump during Russia collusion than Paul Ryan was.

00:10:54.840 He actually had a distrust of the FBI and what was going on, where Paul Ryan was buying the Kool-Aid every day.

00:11:03.120 And so I think Donald Trump had a good relationship with him.

00:11:06.380 And I think, you know, it's possible he could end up in the cabinet, maybe Commerce Secretary or Small Business Administrator.

00:11:13.740 But I think at the end of the day, you know, there is the MAGA movement, and it has a very core set of values.

00:11:20.200 And I think Kevin McCarthy's values are sort of in that era between Reagan and MAGA, where I think the Republican Party lost some of its identity.

00:11:30.420 It wasn't clear what it stood for, or it stood for something, but then it didn't execute on that.

00:11:34.960 And so I think some people are distrustful of him.

00:11:36.840 I know Donald Trump personally likes him a lot, and I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up somewhere in the cabinet.

00:11:43.400 So we'll have to wait and see.

00:11:44.580 But I do know there is a friendship there.

00:11:46.820 Yeah, and it's very apparent.

00:11:49.520 And it's also peculiar because Kevin McCarthy, as you suggest, I mean, he had variations and modulations of his enthusiasm for the president.

00:12:02.160 On January 6th, for example, it was somewhere between a shiv and a kabar that he was swimming into President Trump's back.

00:12:11.640 I don't understand this relationship, if it's built on anything less than loyal.

00:12:20.620 Yeah, listen, again, I don't want to make excuses, but I think a lot of people who were in the capital today were shaken by the experience, right?

00:12:27.700 It felt threatening to them.

00:12:29.140 And it takes some time to sort out the emotion of what you experienced that day from the facts of who were responsible.

00:12:34.960 And what did we ultimately learn in just the last two weeks?

00:12:38.480 Nancy Pelosi thought she was responsible.

00:12:40.820 She didn't get the security there.

00:12:42.920 She knew there was going to be problems.

00:12:44.440 She didn't get it there.

00:12:45.120 She said it spontaneously in her car with her daughter there.

00:12:48.320 Over time, I think Kevin McCarthy realized that one of the most important things I think that a lot of people don't know,

00:12:54.440 the beginning of the unraveling of the January 6th committee really started with Kevin McCarthy.

00:12:59.320 When he took over in early 2023, I know this personally from my reporting.

00:13:03.160 He gave both Rodney Davis last year and then Barry Loudomilk at the beginning of this new Congress full thing.

00:13:10.040 Go get the truth because these guys are lying their tails off.

00:13:13.580 And so as Speaker, he gave them the ability to start to find these bombshell revelations that put the facts first.

00:13:19.760 I think everyone walked out of January 7th.

00:13:21.720 You know, they were all in a stun.

00:13:22.980 They couldn't believe what had happened, what they had lived through.

00:13:25.020 It took a long time for the fog of that moment to disappear.

00:13:28.580 And people realized, wait a second, Nancy Pelosi had a chance to get the National Guard. 0.99

00:13:32.220 She said, keep them.

00:13:32.920 I don't want them.

00:13:33.840 They didn't have enough cops on duty.

00:13:35.460 They didn't take the intelligence warning seriously.

00:13:39.280 The Democrats staged the January 6th committee to hide their own failures.

00:13:44.740 And how do I know that?

00:13:45.760 Because Nancy Pelosi said it on videotape and her daughter kept it out of the HBO documentary.

00:13:51.560 Imagine if that had made the documentary.

00:13:53.420 I'm sure we would have known sooner.

00:13:55.360 I'll make you a bet, though.

00:13:57.420 You didn't buy the bull about President Trump in any way to begin with.

00:14:02.780 So, you know, that's a great story for California Republicans.

00:14:06.600 I'm not sure it matters for MAGA.

00:14:09.180 We'll see.

00:14:10.380 Let me turn to the very idea that there's a lot of confusion about a very tight race, as you're reporting on Just the News.

00:14:20.340 And that's Bob Good and the President Trump chosen successor, if you will.

00:14:28.120 How's that going to pan out?

00:14:29.640 And why are we having this fight to begin with?

00:14:32.140 Well, that's a good question, right?

00:14:33.760 Bob Good obviously endorsed DeSantis, made a bad bet there, didn't find a graceful way to come back to President Trump, got in the way of some of the things that President Trump didn't want to see or did want to see happen in Congress.

00:14:45.740 And then he wonders why President Trump opposed him.

00:14:48.040 Well, because he wasn't the sort of player that the party needed at that moment.

00:14:52.600 It's going to go to a recount by all the reporting I've done today.

00:14:55.740 I think it's going to go to a recount and we'll see what the voters of that district ultimately decided.

00:15:01.560 But in Bob Good, there is a good lesson for Republicans.

00:15:05.540 And I think that sometimes principle and pragmatism get flipped upside down.

00:15:13.340 And I think Bob Good may have thought he was being pragmatic with some of the things he did, but he strayed from some of the principles of the Republican Party at a time when Republicans needed unity.

00:15:23.380 And I think he's probably going to end up on the short side of this vote, but the recount will let us know.

00:15:29.080 It is very, very close and it does qualify for, as of right now, qualifies for the automatic recount.

00:15:34.080 So let's see what Bob Good does.

00:15:36.500 I do think that the Trump endorsed candidate probably is going to come out the winner at the end based on the current vote count.

00:15:41.820 But let's wait and see.

00:15:43.000 We've seen a lot of problems with vote counts lately.

00:15:45.180 Just ask the residents of Connecticut to vote twice in a couple of months for Bridgeport mayor.

00:15:49.500 So let's see how this ultimately shakes out.

00:15:51.200 But I think the recount is the next step in that process.

00:15:54.300 Yeah, I mean, how many candidates are for vice president, apparently candidates, transgressed when it came to President Trump?

00:16:04.220 I mean, J.D. Vance, the most popular among them at this moment, certainly did.

00:16:09.700 There was an embrace.

00:16:11.480 It's an interesting period in time.

00:16:14.640 It is.

00:16:15.040 And also, I want to remind people, President Trump has an extraordinary capacity to let past bygones be bygones.

00:16:23.000 He's a guy that forgives and moves on if he thinks that it's for the good of the country.

00:16:27.580 And I think what happened with Bob Good is he couldn't figure out how to move from where he was.

00:16:33.340 He's a guy who has really strong conservative principles and was leading the Freedom Caucus and rightly opposing some of the things that Republicans were weak on and, you know, trying to force them to do the right thing.

00:16:44.100 But there's also a moment where your principal tells you your party has a long game and think it through.

00:16:49.140 And I think he struggled through that period.

00:16:50.700 And President Trump remembered that.

00:16:52.700 And I think that that's what led to the endorsement of a rival.

00:16:55.560 It's very rare to see a nominee for presidential nominee in a party endorsing someone who's not the incumbent.

00:17:03.200 It sent a very powerful message in what Donald Trump thought about it.

00:17:06.340 And again, Bob Good on all the issues is a very strong conservative.

00:17:09.500 But I think on the ability to work with the party at a time when there were sensitive opportunities to move forward or not move forward, I think he he didn't play the right hands of cards, even for his own principles.

00:17:22.920 All right.

00:17:23.660 All he did was really remove Kevin McCarthy from the speakership.

00:17:28.240 Yeah, there's more than that.

00:17:30.480 What other sin did he commit?

00:17:32.920 I'm just curious.

00:17:33.380 There was an opportunity for the Republicans to get together and make a spending deal to get the border shut. 1.00

00:17:39.040 Not the stupid idea that went through the Senate. 1.00

00:17:41.460 That was a bad idea. 0.99

00:17:42.900 But there's a moment where the House Freedom Caucus can say, listen, all right, we got only so many votes.

00:17:48.440 The border is what we promised people we'd fix.

00:17:50.840 All right, we'll take that.

00:17:52.080 We'll bite the bullet on spending so that we can get reelected.

00:17:54.880 But we'll save lives in America by getting a real border deal.

00:17:58.760 And the House Freedom Caucus couldn't get its act together to make that deal.

00:18:04.140 When you're in that moment, you've got to make command decisions.

00:18:06.480 And I think that's the point where I think President Trump got frustrated with Bob Good.

00:18:10.060 All the other stuff is – but there's a moment where the Republicans could have got a border deal.

00:18:15.320 Remember Donald Trump said, hold out, hold out, you can get it.

00:18:19.380 And Bob Good was so much more concerned about the appropriations bills at that moment, I think they missed a window.

00:18:25.320 Just my own reporting on this.

00:18:26.580 Again, trying to be honest as a fact broker, I think there was a moment where Bob Good could have got – delivered the caucus on a border deal and they didn't get it.

00:18:33.980 They were never going to get a spending deal because the House Republican appropriators spend like Democrats.

00:18:40.620 And so until you make those changes, that deal wasn't going to happen.

00:18:43.060 But they could have got a border deal.

00:18:44.360 I think that's what frustrated President Trump.

00:18:46.940 And, John, I have to say to you, you and I don't part company on too many issues.

00:18:52.180 But we part company on that being even remotely close to a good border bill.

00:18:57.160 So that was –

00:18:59.080 That one that the Senate offered was embarrassing.

00:19:02.540 But there was a deal.

00:19:03.900 There was a bigger deal that I think the Republicans were ready to put on the table for Biden, but they couldn't get the votes behind it.

00:19:10.600 You're right.

00:19:10.960 The deal that was on the table was horrible.

00:19:13.360 There was a bigger, better, stronger deal early on.

00:19:16.520 And, you know, over time it slid away.

00:19:18.340 And that's the one I'm referring to.

00:19:19.280 I'm not referring to – certainly not the Senate one or the second deal that kind of comes up at the last minute.

00:19:24.900 But three, four weeks out, there was a really good idea that Republicans had, and they didn't play that card.

00:19:30.100 And it's a big loss for Mike Johnson and for everybody else.

00:19:33.980 Well, Mike Johnson, I mean, he's the guy who had a real good deal too.

00:19:39.520 He was going to bring spending under control.

00:19:42.600 He was going to also make sure that we had warrant-required wiretaps.

00:19:47.880 He caved on both.

00:19:50.820 I don't think anything too good was going to happen very soon with that crowd.

00:19:55.980 You're on to something important, Lou.

00:19:57.300 There's a failure of leadership in the Republican leadership in Congress, and it's been there for about 20 years.

00:20:02.240 There hasn't been a strong Republican leader that could deliver the decisions and policies that the rhetoric often promises.

00:20:10.360 That's a real problem for the – and that's why I think we don't know who the next Republican leader in the House is.

00:20:15.180 I think the voters are going to make a much different stamp on the Congress than we think.

00:20:19.620 Well, I don't know what to think at this point, to tell you the truth.

00:20:24.240 I leave the fortune telling to you, and I appreciate you doing so.

00:20:29.660 So we're talking with John Solomon, the editor-in-chief of the great Just the News.

00:20:35.640 We're coming right back.

00:20:36.720 Stay with us.

00:20:37.280 The Wellness Company and their doctors are medical professionals you can trust.

00:20:42.600 And their new medical emergency kits are the gold standard when it comes to keeping you safe and healthy.

00:20:47.000 This medical emergency kit contains an assortment of life-saving medications, including ivermectin, Z-Pak.

00:20:52.760 Rest assured, knowing that you have emergency antibiotics, antivirals, and antiparasitics on hand to help you and your family stay safe from whatever life throws at you next.

00:21:02.560 We're back with John Solomon.

00:21:13.880 And, John, we're hearing every kind of poppycock story that I can imagine about is Kamala in, is she out, who's going to be Biden's running mate, who will be Kamala Harris's running mate.

00:21:27.940 And just what is the deal for Hillary Clinton to pony up all that fundraising money? 1.00

00:21:35.080 What do you think is going to spin out of this?

00:21:37.920 Who survives this as we're sitting here, what, four and a half months away from an election?

00:21:45.320 It's a great question.

00:21:46.840 I have always been in the camp that I think that the Democrats are going to end up with Joe Biden.

00:21:51.940 They're stuck with the figment that they put before the American people in 2020.

00:21:55.700 There's a lot of reasons to think that way.

00:21:57.320 One is that behind him is Kamala Harris, who polls as a much weaker candidate.

00:22:01.860 And you can't leapfrog over her in the DEI world that the Democrats created for themselves and go get a Gretchen Whitmer or a Gavin Newsom from California, the oppressors, throwing out a woman of color whose turn was next.

00:22:16.880 So they're stuck in this pattern, right?

00:22:19.160 I do think there's one element that is becoming more and more.

00:22:22.040 I think in the last two or three months, the number of public signs that Joe Biden is really not up to the job anymore.

00:22:30.000 I mean, when Barack Obama has to lead you out of a fundraiser and he was president before you, people say, oh, wait a second, something's going on here.

00:22:36.140 I do think that if Joe Biden has a very difficult first debate in June, the pressure will grow to do something.

00:22:44.220 And that's going to require some background deal making.

00:22:46.640 But if he has a decent or OK debate, I think the Democrats are going to stick it out with him, barring a medical episode.

00:22:55.180 It's funny that the Democrats created this problem from themselves.

00:22:59.320 It was obvious in 2020 Joe Biden had problems and now they're going to have to live with that.

00:23:03.560 But the sense of panic on the Democrat is probably equivalent to the customers on the deck of the Titanic about five minutes before the iceberg.

00:23:11.620 People are really panicked in the Democratic Party.

00:23:13.920 Well, I think they should be.

00:23:15.940 And I think that the American people understand they should be.

00:23:19.340 I think they have another reason to add to their panic.

00:23:22.260 And that is that everybody now sees what the Democratic Party is led by a bunch of Marxist stems with an absolutely cavalier attitude about things like sovereignty, integrity and justice.

00:23:40.300 They can't even spell justice, let alone achieve it.

00:23:42.780 This is a corrupt organization, the Democratic Party, that puts Kamala Harris and Joe Biden at the top of their ticket, knowing full well neither is mentally adequate for the jobs they're in.

00:23:58.300 It's just stunning to me.

00:24:00.100 And I think everyone understands now a vote for a Democrat is a vote for Marxism.

00:24:04.520 It's pretty straightforward.

00:24:06.540 Listen, the American people figured it out long ago.

00:24:08.640 I think the elitists are still befuddled with themselves trying to figure it out.

00:24:11.260 But the American people figure it out.

00:24:12.240 They look at it and say, listen, you're the border zone.

00:24:14.740 You didn't fix it, Kamala Harris.

00:24:15.860 Joe Biden, you told me for four months you didn't have the executive power.

00:24:18.880 Then you did.

00:24:19.600 But you didn't fix it even when you did the exercise executive power.

00:24:22.640 The American people have decided that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as a team and individually are a failure.

00:24:29.720 And that's why they're looking back at a former president to return to power.

00:24:33.640 It's rare in American history to have a former president running against the man who defeated him.

00:24:37.620 But in this case, the records are so clear.

00:24:40.460 And most Americans say unequivocally they were far better off under Donald Trump from 2017 to 2021 than they've been under Joe Biden at any point since the Biden-Kamala Harris ticket took over.

00:24:52.400 That is a remarkable thing.

00:24:54.320 The polling is so consistently strong in rejecting the Biden record that it's going to be hard to move.

00:25:01.100 And politics is a glacial sport.

00:25:03.560 And Joe Biden is so far behind right now that it's going to be very hard for him to make up this ground.

00:25:09.460 And he's got this other problem that the last time it was on the political stage, it was for Republicans a problem, the Ross-Pearl factor of 92.

00:25:18.060 He's got three Democrats running him in the general election that are going to split the Democrat vote up.

00:25:22.420 And Donald Trump has a clear shot at the center-right coalition.

00:25:26.240 And he's peeling people away from Joe Biden.

00:25:28.460 I just I don't see a scenario where the Democrats have a solution.

00:25:32.720 And I think the American people already made up their mind.

00:25:34.720 Yeah, I do, too.

00:25:36.080 And a lot of those Americans are African-American and Hispanic, particularly, particularly men under the age of 50, American, Hispanic.

00:25:47.020 They have moved.

00:25:48.480 They're there right now with Donald Trump.

00:25:51.600 And, of course, the party itself, the Democratic Party, is a complete disaster.

00:25:59.060 This is Donald Trump's race now to lose.

00:26:02.320 I really believe it.

00:26:03.340 And who do you, since we're so close, who's going to be the vice president?

00:26:10.960 I don't know yet.

00:26:11.920 I'm not sure Donald Trump knows.

00:26:13.480 You know, J.D. Vance seems like the flavor today.

00:26:16.540 Byron Donald's in the past.

00:26:17.940 I think Marco Rubio shows up in there.

00:26:20.900 I'm going to take the president at his word.

00:26:22.800 The day after Christmas last year, he called into my show.

00:26:25.980 I guess I was the only guy working, so I was lucky enough to field the call.

00:26:28.620 And he called in.

00:26:29.220 He said, John, I don't buy into the prescription that the vice president delivers a state or a constituency.

00:26:35.300 The president delivers that.

00:26:36.760 The only thing the American people want me to do is to pick a vice president that can succeed me.

00:26:41.480 And I want to make this a 12-year tenure.

00:26:43.880 Me for four, eight for my vice president.

00:26:45.860 I'm going to pick the person I think can best be president.

00:26:49.380 And I take him at his word.

00:26:50.760 And I think he's still probably processing through that.

00:26:53.340 I do think the list that's out there now is probably the list.

00:26:56.380 Who on that list ultimately comes here?

00:26:57.900 I think only Donald Trump will know.

00:27:00.520 I think he was exactly right.

00:27:02.440 The problem is, it's a heck of a lot more complicated than it sounds, isn't it?

00:27:07.040 You're right.

00:27:08.660 That's very true.

00:27:09.400 Thanks so much.
